    Fun video, it is always fun and a thrill to pass more expensive/higher hp cars on the track.

    Mr. Ferrari there wouldn't know an apex if it walked up and bit him in the ass! :D

    I've been behind Corvettes that could power away from me on the straights, but then I'm right back riding the license plates in the corners - if they point me by I'm gone, if not - more times than not I'm just stuck. I have a vid I took of one session like this, I'll put up a link if anyone wants to watch it, but other than for my frustration level it's pretty boring! I finallly got so tired of following this guy I let my buddy pass me to let him ride his ass for a while! Next thing I know, he lets my buddy pass him and I'm right back behind the Vette again! Arrggghhh!

    He wasn't a total a-hole...

    he did let the MINI by.... But yes, there were some very interesting lines chosen for several of the turns. Looks like a fun track! The windmills kept distracting me though....

    Must be right on the coastline, judging by all the sand around the track - reminded me of Zandvoort in Holland - except flatter, if you can believe that!
